Gravity and Grace by Respire

A lot of people say White Pony, but Around The Fur is where it’s at.
White Pony is accessible and everyone knows it. Around the Fur has the best snare I’ve ever heard recorded.
That’s a total lie! St Anger had the best snare in history!
This album is dedicated to Lars’ new drum kit.
Best is subjective. But my favorite album of my favorite band is Rankarumpu by Korpiklaani. I was bummed to see their previous violin player go on hiatus, but the new violinist brought a new energy to this album. Title track
It’s a tie for me
Pearl Jam. (1991). Ten [Album]. Epic Records.
A Tribe Called Quest. (1991). The Low End Theory [Album]. Jive Records.
Here’s my thing about ‘Ten’.
I love the first half of this album. It’s some of the best music I know in the genre. High energy, catchy, passionate. But somehow, the second half feels to me like the band ran out of ideas and gas. After ‘Jeremy’ it’s all pretty average, low-energy stuff, with the exception of ‘Garden’.
Porch is a banger for me.
My fuck, Low End Theory is one of the best albums in history.
You on point, Tip?

Well, then grab the microphone and let your words rip.
Somewhere Far Beyond.
They just re-recorded it and it’s great.
"Now you all know…
Ween - Quebec
Favorite band is very tough. It’s probably Ween, and Quebec slightly over The Mollusk for meMmm, my order of favorite Ween albums would be Chocolate and Cheese, Quebec, White Pepper.
But Mollusk has some bangers on it too (Buckingham Green).
Why yes, yes I am down with the brown.
Did you listen to the Deluxe C&C yet? The “new” songs are really great
I have not! Gotta give that a listen, thanks for the heads-up!
Bleed American by Jimmy Eat World
Clarity is peak for me, but Bleed American is an amazing accomplishment
“August and everything after” Counting crows
Paul’s Boutique
Such a wild record. Great pick!
Nonagon Infinity - King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. Though their other 25 albums are awesome too.
I am also partial to their album PetroDragonic Apocalypse; or, Dawn of Eternal Night: an Annihilation of Planet Earth and the Beginning of Merciless Damnation. Probably my favorite metal album, and they aren’t even a pure metal band.
I think my personal favorite is Omnium Gatherum, but it has some ups and downs. Nonagon Infinity is pretty much flawless from top to bottom (and back to top)
Dream Theater “Awake” (1994). Extraordinary from the first to the last note. 75 minutes of phenomenal prog metal. They’ve made good and great albums before and after, but they never excelled the pure class and artistry displayed on this album.
Nightfall in Middle Earth
